A car is traveling at 24.0 m/s when the driver suddenly applies the brakes, causing the car to slow down with constant accelerat

ion. The car comes to a stop in a distance of 120 m. How fast was the car moving when it was 60.0 m past the point where the brakes were applied?

Answer:

17 m/s

Explanation:

Data

initial speed, Vi = 24 m/s

distance travelled, x = 120 m

final speed, Vf = 0 m/s

With help of the next Uniformly Accelerated Motion equation, we can compute car acceleration.

Vf² = Vi² + 2ax

a = Vf² - Vi²/(2x) 

a = 0² - 24²/(2*120) 

a = -2.4 m/s²

Now, the final speed is the unknown and the distance is 60 m:

Vf² = Vi² + 2ax

Vf = √(24² + 2*(-2.4)*60)

Vf = 17 m/s

Answer:

The answer to your question is : vf = 15.18 m/s

Explanation:

Data

vo = 24 m/s

d = 120 m

vf = ? when d = 60.0 m

Formula

              vf² = vo²  + 2ad

For d =100m

            a = (vf² - vo²) / 2d

            a = (0 -24²) / 2(100)

            a = -576/200

             a = 2.88 m/s²

Now, when d = 60

        vf² = (24)² - 2(2.88)(60)

        vf² = 576 - 345.6

        vf² = 230.4

        vf = 15.18 m/s

How many photons with 10 ev are required to produce 20 joules of energy?
oee [108]
One electron Volt (eV) is equal to 1.6 x 10^-19 Joules. Therefore, 10 eV is equal to 1.6 x 10^-18 Joules. In order to produce 20 Joules of energy from 10 eV photons, we would require 20 x 1/(1.6  x 10^-18) = 1.25 x 10^19 particles. This demonstrates that in the world of particle physics, the Joule is a massive energy unit relative to the commonly used electron Volt.

An engineer is designing a runway for a witch. Several brooms will use the runway and the engineer must design it so that it is
jonny [76]

Answer:

1170 m

Explanation:

Given:

a = 3.30 m/s²

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 88.0 m/s

x₀ = 0 m

Find:

x

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

(88.0 m/s)² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (3.30 m/s²) (x - 0 m)

x = 1173.33 m

Rounded to 3 sig-figs, the runway must be at least 1170 meters long.

Does distance play a role in the magnetic field ?
OLga [1]
Magnetic force obeys an inverse square law with distance. ... If the distance between two magnets is halved the magnetic force between them will increase to four times the initial value.

When did ernest rutherford make his discovery
oee [108]

Answer:

1911

Explanation:

"In 1911, he was the first to discover that atoms have a small charged nucleus surrounded by largely empty space, and are circled by tiny electrons, which became known as the Rutherford model (or planetary model) of the atom."
